It's a shame as they were all hosted well but i recently discovered that over the years, all of the Phoreski mixes i did, apart from Beats In Space have lost their original site hosts.

So i thought i'd upload the first one and see if folk still have any interest in them...

PHORESKI - BARE FIST CHEEK [Summer  2006 Mix]

Chambers of Reflection #41 w/ Michael Satter at Radio 80000 • 08.02.2022

The spring is in the air.. time for some warm and sunny sounds that make you jump around like a newborn lamb in some blissful green field! This new tropical, mostly zouk mix by Super Daronne co-founder RIGO delivers just that. With a great taste in digging music (check out his 'Be There Or Be Square' YouTube channel) and with residencies at Bordeaux's iBOAT, he surely knows how to set the mood for good vibes. Wear this mix like a flower!

Still don't have a good feeling about UEFA, but football is still a great sport to watch, at least for UV Radio host @philipp-demankowski and regular guests @conrad-kaden and Gunnar. So despite all controversies, there was no way around it: Having already done a special for EURO 2020, they've done a Football special again, this time for EURO 2024. The rules are the same: you get eight countries from the participating field and have to choose a nice song from each country. The result is an entertaining show with 24 not-so-typical football anthems.

Uncanny Valley Radio 092 - Euro 2024 Special with Conrad, Philipp and Gunnar

Here's the new radio show straight out of the studio from none other than @stachy, a true legend who has been living his daily life in Dresden for a few years now, but has a career that spans all sorts of roots in music, with a respectable background in hip-hop and a decent career in pop music under his belt. To this day, he just can't get enough of music, be it in an academic context, as a versatile electronic music producer, a passionate lover of ambient and vaporwave or as a fun DJ. For the show, he dives deep into his Polish roots with this special version of Baltic Balearica, which he calls Bigos a la Balearic. Have fun!

As Christmas approaches, UV Radio host @philipp-demankowski continues a cherished tradition with the annual Ambient Special. This year marks a milestone—it’s already the tenth episode of this soothing journey. In a busy year when UV Radio managed just three regular shows, this special provides a rare but reliable moment of calm. With the state of the world as it is, those 90 minutes of wallpaper music might be exactly what you need. So, find a quiet spot, unwind, and let the sounds envelop you. Merry Ambient Christmas, everyone!

Welcome to the world's latest annual Best-Of Show! Every January, UV Radio host head Philipp asks friends from the UV environment for their favorite song of the previous year.

Uncanny Valley Radio 095 - Best of 2024

Dancers have to train hard and perform with a rough edge, conveying emotions with as much acting ease as possible. At the end it also requires choreography, clothing, lighting and the appropriate set with lots of helping hands. The bigger the show, the more people are involved. With a few exceptions, it also needs sound, rhythm or just a appropriate soundscape. Sometimes existing music is used because it is structurally well suited to the piece. Other times, working with composers and musicians is the best way to put your own stamp on the piece bringing things to the point.
 
@sandrow_m has been working with choreographers and dance piece makers for several years. With this compilation he presents 20 different pieces of music that were either used because of their suitability or were created. There is no attempt to present the entire spectrum, which would not be possible in 90 minutes anyway. Nevertheless the compilation contains various styles, for which, with a little patience, you can try to find corresponding film material on the Internet to complete your listening experience.

1. Thomas Bangalter - CHIROPTERA Solo Intro (from JR, Damien Jalet, Thomas Bangalter - CHIROPTERA)
2. Alisdair Macindoe -  4/4 (from Chunky Move – 4/4)
3. Steve Reich – Violin Phase
4. Hofesh Shechters Dancing Clowns (Directed, choreographed and composed by Hofesh Shechter)
5. Terry Riley – In C
6. Soundwalk Collective - Amputated Impulses (from Sasha Waltz – Kreatur)
7.  Armand Amar feat. Isabel Sörling - Vertikal Pt 1 (from Armand Amar – Vertikal Pt 1)
8. Thomas Bangalter – CHIROPTERA (from JR, Damien Jalet, Thomas Bangalter – CHIROPTERA)
9. Mikael Karlsson - Eskapist_Procession  (from Alexander Ekman - Eskapist)
10. Jamie xx – Gosh
11. Andrew Winghart – Step Into The Light (from Andrew Winghart – Step Into The Light)
12. Armand Amar - Pixel Life (Original Soundtrack for Pixel a Dance Performance)
13. Nikolaus Woernle - Landscapes (from Natalie Wagner -  Im Puls)
14. Sandrow M - Ulf had nose (from Yaron Shamir – Mr. Krake)
15. Ori Lichtik feat. Gidon Schocken - Struße (from Sharon Eyal - Strong)
16. Ori Lichtik – Half Life (from Sharon Eyal – Half Life)
17. Travis Lake – Interrogation (Travis Lake – Avalanche)
18. Ran Bagno – Agapé Unison (Original Dance performance Soundtrack)
19. A.M. Beef - Awamamba (from Imre van Opstal - Wanderlust)
20. Nikolaus Woernle - Breakdown (from Natalie Wagner - Im Puls)

For music written specifically for a dance piece, the choreographers and names of the pieces are given in brackets. Compositions that were used for one or more dance pieces due to their suitability after their creation are named without such a designation.

Uncanny Valley is a label from Dresden, Germany.
sub-labels: shtum Records & @credit00ratlife

visit our website for upcoming events:
https://uncannyvalley.de/dates

Starting as a label that served basically as a platform for their friends’ music in 2010, Uncanny Valley evolved into a record label that assembles acclaimed artists from the electronic music scene not only from the label’s base in Dresden but also from Germany and beyond. With a strong emphasis on the records’ artwork the label heads Philipp Demankowski, Conrad Kaden and Carl-Johannes Schulze are constantly on a mission to establish and refine the artists from the roster as well as to search for new talents. Artists as Jacob Korn, Cuthead, Credit 00, Massimiliano Pagliara, CVBox or Panthera Krause all feel at home on the label, giving them the chance to develop projects that are not only music related but can also integrate different art forms. With the two offshoots Rat Life and shtum under its belt, Uncanny Valley does not stand still to explore the full spectrum of electronic and not so electronic music from House via Disco, Hip-Hop or Ambient through to Techno. A range that can also be depicted when the three label heads come together for a DJ set as Uncanny Valley DJs.

Philipp Demankowski from Dresden has never understood why so many DJs tend to use just one genre to make people dance. Since even the most innovative music is a melting pot of all of its influences in the end, an atmospheric DJ set can be diverse too. This approach is not only important for his mixes but also in Philipp’s radio show UV Funk on Dresden based community radio station coloRadio. Also, he's one of the heads behind Uncanny Valley and its sub labels Rat Life and shtum.

Everything started in 2006 as part of the DJ team The Moroders and with their wild Cosmic Dancer parties which were the first opportunity for Dresden’s Disco and House heads to see artists like Todd Terje, Tensnake, Mr Raoul K or Runaway. Club series like Still Going, an afterhour tribute to the sun, as well as the underground club night Sweat Box followed. Recently he established a Sunday dance called Balearic Sunday which turned out to be an awesome sunny party for everybody loving eclectic DJ-sets. Also, Philipp has played festivals like Nachtdigital and Melt! and most probably in one of your favorite clubs next door.
